Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on April 19, 2012, Homeowners Choice, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc., as representative of the underwriters (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 1,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), for $11.75 per share, less a 6.0% underwriting commission. Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriter an option to purchase up to an additional 240,000 shares of Common Stock at the public offering price, less a 6.0% underwriting commission, within 45 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement to cover over-allotments, if any. The offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (Registration Statement No. 333-180322), and the Prospectus Supplement dated April 19, 2012. On April 23, 2012, the Underwriter elected to fully exercise its overallotment option. The closing of the sale of an aggregate of 1,840,000 shares of Common Stock occurred on April 25, 2012 (the “Shares”).
